Relationships

Also from Lisa...

Longest relationship:
Does 20 years of marriage count? Otherwise, it's with my mom.

Shortest relationship:
About 6 hours. Extended for 2 weeks too long.

How many people have you broken up with?
Three, I think. Four breakups, three guys.

How many times have you truly been in love?
Once.

How many significant others have told you they loved you?
All of them. Some of them were lying.

Have you ever thought that you were going to marry the person you were with?
Since I'm married, that's kind of an odd question.

Have you ever loved someone so much that it hurt?
That would describe parental love....yes.

Have you ever made a significant other cry?
Yeah. Jeez.

Have you ever cried over a significant other?
Of course.

Are you happier single or in a relationship?
Relationship, although I haven't been single much.

Have you ever cheated on a significant other?
Not physically.

Have you ever been cheated on?
I'm pretty sure, yes. But not in the last 20 years.

What is your favorite thing about the opposite sex?
The constant ability to surprise me.

What is the best part of being in a relationship?
Having someone to talk to, someone to whom I don't have to explain the backstory.

What is the worst part of being in a relationship?
He's
always
around.

ALWAYS. ;-)

Worst relationship?
I haven't had any really awful ones, thank the Lord.

Have you ever had your heart broken?
I don't know. There have been some pretty major chunks excised across the years, however.

Have you ever broken someone's heart?
I think so.

Do you talk to any of your exes?
I only know where one is for sure. No.

What is your ideal significant other?
Depends on the day. :-)
Basically, perfection doesn't exist, not long-term anyway.

Do you believe that you are a good significant other?
Of course I am.
Sometimes.
But I can be a huge pain in the ass, too.

Have you dated people who were not good to you?
Yes, but nothing very dramatic, and we only dated about 4 months. Then he moved. I haven't ever been properly appreciative of that....

Have you been in an abusive relationship?
No, through the grace of God.

Have you ever had sex with someone just so that they would stay with you?
No.

Have you ever had sexual fantasies about one of your exes?
That's funny.
No.

Have you dated someone older then you?
Yes. That was an error.

Younger?
Yes. Not always a good thing either.

What is one thing that all of your exes had in common???
They are all exes. Otherwise...well, two shared a first name, and some other similarities. I don't think I really had/have a 'type.' Beyond bein male.

Say who is the most attractive ex that you have ever dated?
Stop for a second: if I married him, is he an ex-boyfriend?
The most attractive was probably the 6-hour relationship. There could be a relationship between the two.

Do you regret anything that you have done with a significant other?
Oh for heaven's sake, of course.

Do you believe everyone deserves a second chance?
Up to a point.
Well, actually, no, I don't think so. Some people don't.

Believe in love at first sight?
I think so.

Ever dated two people at once?
Well, yeah, but there was no "going steady" situation on anyone's part.

Ever been given a promise ring?
Does an engagement ring count?

Do you want to get married?
Sounds like a proposal to me. ;-)
Sorry, I only need one spouse at a time.

Do you have something to say to any of your exes?
Only that I'm sorry to one of them.

Ever stolen someone's boyfriend or girlfriend?
No. Not for lack of trying....

-Do you believe in true love?
I think so.
